I am so sorry for ignoring this blog and keeping you informed of what is going on with me and the shop…but when its Market time and your fabric arrives late on Wednesday (15th)and you need to cut piece and appliqué 3 quilts to be shipped out the the next week (21st) so they can be quilted sent back, bound and photographed for patterns and brochures. There isn’t enough time to do much. I even had help with Amy making all the HST’s for Triangle Gathering….Its also not very glamorous…sometimes its a few days between hairdos but I always soak in the tub each night after sitting for so many hours and stitching. So this is the story of why the neglect…Oh…and I hope you are all liking out new website for Primitive Gatherings…still a little more work to do but I can’t believe all the features it has and it will take us a bit to learn it all…If you have had problems with not getting to our site…please type in your browser Primitive Gatherings and remove the old cached one in your bookmark and add the new one. We also have sent out a post from the shop about all the techy stuff you can do, as our site uses the latest technology.
The week before this I was working on new wool appliqué designes…I was bummed because when I was on FB and Instagram everyone was stitching on Autumn stuff and I was working on Spring and Flowers…New projects for Fall Market so shops can buy our designs make them and have them ready for Spring and Summer…Well…I snuck in a new Fall one…Here is Pumpkin Farm…
This is what is looks like when I first start stitching… I just drew the branches on the trees and have them stem stitched…
Then here it is after having one side done…see how it comes to life with the small details you can do with a needle and thread? Lazy daisy fall leaves…falling off the tree and piling on the ground…the mums are blooming, the fire is lit in the Pumpkin house and the geese are starting to fly south…over the harvest moon…
photo-both sides stitched. The size is 10×30…Notice the cool background wool? This is a limited background that we will only have for the first kits we make….I love the added interest it adds. If you want, I say want because I know you don’t need to have another projects…but this one is fun to stitch! Here is the link to our website for kit and pattern info. Pumpkin Farm
I will try to keep posting about the other projects…Happy Sunday and Go Packers!
